Bio:In the alternate future MC2, Fabian, the son of the current Black Tarantula has taken up his father's mantle. He would make his first appearance in a conflict with the crime lord Canis.

Though a criminal, this Black Tarantula has a deep sense of honor, and he has helped support Spider-Girl's crime-fighting career. He does have a hidden agenda, however--he hopes to win her over as "his mate." Black Tarantula and Spider-Girl face each other often, and their story is ongoing.

He attempted to negotiate with the Cabal of Scriers (the former lackeys of Norman Osborn) to call off their hit on Spider-Girl, and when this failed, he challenged their leader to mortal combat for leadership of the Cabal. Victorious, he ordered the hit cancelled.

In Amazing Spider-girl #3 it is revealed that after the time jump between the series, the Black Tarantula is the current kingpin of crime and it is implied that he is interested in the mysterious item that Mona Carlo is carrying.

The son of the Black Tarantula wears a variation of his father's suit, removing the sleevs and using futuristic metal gauntlets and boot-soles.

Fabian possesses the same superhuman powers as his father, and is as well trained in hand-to-hand combat and martial arts.
